If the IRS sent your stimulus check in 2020 then the first one could be seized for child support. If they sent you a check for the 2nd one they could not take it for child support. BUT if you were getting the 2nd one on your 2020 tax return as a recovery rebate credit---that refund could be offset for child support. That is the way Congress wrote the law. If your recovery rebate credit was taken for child support, you cannot get it. Sorry.
